My Favorite Dog Bowl


You'd think it would be easy to find great dog bowls, but it's not. Many are too heavy. Some are too light. Plenty are ugly. The "Pappy" bowl by United Pets is just right. Ours has served as a water bowl for many years now and still shows no signs of wear: it looks beautiful and functions perfectly. Designed in Italy by Guilio  Lacchetti and Ilaria Gibertini, it comes in three sizes and 13 colors. It's made of heavy-duty polypropylene with a rubber underside (to prevent slipping) and a handy bone-shaped cut-out on the side (to make it easy to pick up). Rocco and Jezebel sells the Pappy for $15 to $25, depending on size.
